C., Jan. 27.-Major General Leonard Wood, in France on t an observation tour, was slightly I wounded today by an accidental explo- I sion which killed five French soldiers and hurt two other American officers. Secretary Baker announced the ac- 1 cident in this statement: "A cable dispatch from the head 'quarters of General tPershing states that an accidental explosion occur- c ring today killed live French soldiers 1 and slightly injured Major General I \Vood in the ann, Lieutenant Colonel I Charles E.
